“Can’t say enough good things about Justin… communication was great, he was thoughtful about logistics and flexible as we figured out key hand off and meeting our two dogs. I’m certain the house was cleaner than we left it for him. After a long, long travel day it was wonderful to come home to a clean house and two happy dogs. Thank you so much Justin!!”
“I am so happy to have found Theresa to in home dog sit while I’m away! She’s knowledgeable, communicative, and so easy to work with! Not to mention my big boy, Bruce, absolutely adores her! He has some rescue dog baggage that can be tricky sometimes, but it’s so comforting to know he’s in such good hands. Bonus! Theresa has taken some of my all time favorite pictures of Bruce, which are such a treat to get while out of town. Can’t recommend working with Theresa highly enough!”
“Rae took great care of our dog & cat. Our dog was recovering from surgery and was a bit more complicated because of that, she paid attention to the details of her care and stayed in communication while we were away.”
“Jolene is awesome, she was well prepared with details about toby. She is a creative person and it was awesome to see her draw Toby! Toby loved her!!”
“Pablo is the best! He has watched our dog so often now that she is excited to see him when he comes over. Pablo always takes great care of our Lucy, and our home.”
“Julie really is *SUPER*! Our special-needs Yorkie received wonderful care. Julie provided daily communication including photos, expertly pampered little Violet with her usual routine, and our home was extremely clean. Next time we go on vacation, checking Julie's availability will be part of our initial planning. She is an intelligent and kind-hearted person who approachs pet sitting as an experienced professional.”
“Van was fantastic with our two dogs while we were on a short weekend trip. The dogs really seemed to like her. She provided ample photos of the activities while we were away. She was respectful of our home and super communicative. Definitely plan to use her again for future dog sitting needs!”
“Ami was great! One of my dogs is quite nervous around new people and Ami was great with her. She provided regular updates and pictures. My dogs were relaxed and happy when I came home. I would recommend her!”
“We have booked Davied twice for long stays now. He takes great care of our dogs and leaves the house tidy. We can always relax on our trips know that the dogs are in trusted hands.”
“Beth was amazing! She was very good with my senior dog who can be difficult due to her medications and behaviors. She regularly updated me and sent photos while I was away, which I really appreciated. She also kept my home very clean! I would definitely recommend her to pet sit!”
“Margaret was the best! Such a sweet person, and you could tell she’s had a lot of experience around animals. She was professional, communicative and on time. And our pup loved her! Would definitely recommend her to everyone. Six stars out of 5. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Stacey was the best! She cared for our quirky dog, our two rabbits, and our home while we were traveling and made it reality easy. Great communication, on top of everything we asked her to do, sweet photos of our pets so we knew all was well. 10 out of 10, would hire again!”
“Quinn did an excellent job watching my doggo Kanna. They were really responsive and I appreciated the lovely photos they sent. Kanna got to go on a really long walk at a local park which she surely loved. Quinn super exceeded my expectations in all areas and I'm grateful they could watch kanna for her first time in a new house while I was away.”
“It was lovely getting to know Melissa and so appreciated the care and companionship she offered our two very human-centered and "talkative" cats. We enjoyed her communication and photo and video updates. We also returned to the house left in perfect condition.”
“We are so happy with Brandon & his wife Ashley house sitting our pups Shorty and Sammie, the pups had a great time and we will certainly book them again! Brandon and Ashley were caring and attentive, played with the pups, walked them and gave them lots of belly rubs! Thank you!”
“Uliana took great care of our pups and house while we were away. Uliana was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. I would absolutely recommend Uliana and would book again.”
“Caroline saved the day when our initial cat sitter canceled at the last minute. She was extremely responsive, easy to work with, and, most importantly, took wonderful care of Harry and Meghan. Our home was also spotless when we returned. I would rebook Caroline in a heartbeat and highly recommend her!”
“Zachory was so patient with my dog who can be anxious and barky when she first meets new people. He took great care of the house and her, and she was calm and happy when I returned. Thank you, Zachory!”
“Kathleen really is the best! I’d give her 6/5 stars if I could. She was not only timely with the girls’ schedule, she sent us updates everyday along with pictures of them. We could tell how much she cared for the girls and we can’t thank her enough. Our cat was dealing with some vomiting issues, but Kathleen was on top of keeping us updated and making sure she was doing ok. We can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jeff was the best petsitter we have had - he stepped in right away when I was in a schedule pinch, he followed directions to a T, he kept in contact to let us know everyone was doing well, he shared how much he enjoyed the doggos, and when we arrived home the house was immaculate, smelled nice, and the dogs were relaxed and happy. I didn't get to meet him in person beforehand, and he is definitely someone you can trust if you have to do the same.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ballard
We had a great experience with Hayley & Lily! They did a wonderful job taking care of Loki, were communicative and punctual, and left the place even cleaner than when they arrived. Most importantly, Loki seemed to really enjoy their company. He was comfortable enough to play with his toys, which is a great sign for him! They were also understanding of his leash reactivity and handled it without any issues. We’d absolutely have them watch Loki again!
Karin was unbelievably amazing and professional. One of my dogs was even looking for her the next day 🥹 She went above and beyond to ensure my elder dogs were well taking care of and the youngest ball of energy was getting the attention she needs. Karin was responsive, sent pictures, timely, and tidy. Her preparedness and ensuring contingency plans were in place took a lot of stress away from being away. We will happily book her again!
Quinnie is a great communicator, and runs a quality business! Our cats were well cared for and all the details of care were executed making our cats feel secure and safe while we were away. We received updates and pictures each visit. Overall great experience!
Justin was absolutely wonderful with Zoey! She loved him, and I felt so reassured knowing she was in such good hands while I was away. He took great care of her, sent me pictures, and was always really responsive whenever I checked in. He was incredibly sweet and attentive with Zoey, especially since she’s an older dog, and I really appreciated how thoughtful he was with everything. He also went above and beyond in taking care of the house and making sure everything was in great shape when I got home, which was such a nice surprise. I’m so grateful for how well he took care of Zoey and would absolutely recommend him. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Justin again!
Pablo was so amazing and communicative! We had never had someone housesit for us before so we were a little nervous but he sent us constant updates and made us feel really comfortable! Our dog had the best time with him! Absolutely recommend and will be using him again to help out with our dog!!
Margaret has been walking my girl Sadie for several weeks and has house Sat for me twice already. She is very caring and attentive and communicative. She pays special attention to Sadie’s anxious tendencies and I’ve noticed changes in Sadie becoming more confident already. I would recommend Margaret to anyone looking for a caretaker and a friend for their dog!
Chris was, as always, wonderful with our dog Gemma. I particularly appreciated him suggesting a fellow Dogsitter for dates he was already booked. They both did a spectacular job together, and I look forward to working with them in the future again! Thank you, Chris!
